Veteran jazz guitarist Frank Vignola hosts a Guitar Night each Wednesday at Birdland in New York City.
In 2023, he featured 18-year old guitarist Henry Acker during a swinging version of “All Of Me.”
Acker displays a fluent and personal sound along with self-confidence during the medium-tempo rendition.
Also featured are pianist Ted Rosenthal, Frank Vignola, and bassist Gary Mazzaroppi with the tasteful drummer Vince Cherico taking a few breaks on brushes.
